What should we check on a visit to Trinity Glen?
Start where the federal numbers point: ask for the complete April 2, 2026 survey report anyway; 2 deficiencies is not unusual here, but the details matter.
- Turnover of 46.5% is not above the local median; ask how long the night nurses have been there.
- With beds about 93% full, ask about the waiting list and how short-term rehab beds are held open.
- CMS shows a resident council here; ask when it meets and whether family members can come.
- If NC Medicaid may be needed later, confirm Trinity Glen takes it for long-term residents and how the switch from private pay works.
